I've recently been transferring all my data generating services to Microsoft. I can't avoid using windows at the moment. Microsoft e-mail, tablet, internet explorer, bing searches, and skype for calls.
Eliminating google's share of my data. Now at least only one corporation has it, instead of 3 or 4. You can do the same thing if you wanted with Google or Apple, juast make sure every device and software you use is with the same company. That way only 1 company will have your data.
This brings us to ISP choice. Does Microsoft or google or apple have connections with a specific ISP that would be a best choice if you were trying to contain your data to one company?
Stop making shitty OFF FUCKING TOPIC ones you filthy fucking jew cunt.

Honestly OP, just remake this thread on Zig Forums. Zig Forums is the worst place to get advice on anything related to technology, considering these idiots supported Pajeet Pai. Polite Sage.
Caleb Butler
bump ;)
Ian Nguyen
I don't trust anybody unless they're on pol.
Wyatt Martin
This is still a tech question so if you're serious you should ask there anyway.
Also sending all your info to 1 front company instead of 3 or 4 only makes it easier to collate your data. If you really dont want your information easily available then you have to create your own system at this point, everything comes with BotNet now.
Jordan Sanders
OP do you have any links for more information
Why not just use tails OS?
Isaiah Moore
Don't have the luxury to learn that now, not to the point where it could replace windows and Microsoft devices. I'm talking about not even using devices made outside of Microsoft. The only way for the average person to do that is to pick either all apple, all google, or all Microsoft products.

Don't bother user. Head to a bunker, there are very few of us here now, and we mostly lurk anyhow. It's a glownigger botnet hosted on DoD servers with Hasbara slides putting out bait. They even use AI probably cheaper than the souless TRShills they used to bump threads.
Ayden Parker
Quite frankly, Microsoft doesn't need your ISP to collect all your data. If you're using Windows 10, your privacy is already dead.
much irony these glowniggers have in post pre-filtering
Ryan Sanchez
It's dead to microsoft, yes, but nobody else. assuming you only use Microsoft products…. There are levels of privacy being dead, and can get worse than using just windows 10.
Ayden Johnson
I use different browsers for different tasks with different search engines in each. Eg shitposting is DDG, research is Bing and work shit is Google.
Matthew Hernandez
All the data collected by Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Amazon end up in the hands of the big brother government. If you're using Windows 10, you're right off the bat making it easy for them, by giving them access to every single keystroke and mouse gesture you make, plus whatever goes into microphone, camera, and anything else they can snoop on via that botnet of an OS running on your PC. If you want to make it hard for them to collect data, the first step is to use a better OS, and avoid using any services at all from those companies. wired.com/story/is-big-tech-merging-with-big-brother-kinda-looks-like-it/

How is that any different from 8 or 7 or vista or xp?
Thomas Rodriguez
Sure, the OS can always access the hardware, log things, etc. That's not the issue here. What has changed is they're now using this capability to spy on every Windows 10 user and send all the gathered informations into their databases in the "cloud".
Samuel Miller
Dude come on we both know they have more than likely been doing that since 95.
Bentley Cox
they've had the ability to do that since 95, on the machines they decided to target for surveillance what's new with win10 is that every machine does it constantly, for everyone
Tyler Jackson
What's even worse is theres so much spyware and surveillance shit running in the background that microsoft's default apps took 30 seconds or longer just to start up after the jump to 8
Brody Brown
Not so easy back then, given the average dude had a 14.4K modem on his 486 with 8 megs of RAM and 500 meg HD. A rich kid might have a low end pentium with twice as much memory and a 28.8K modem, but most people didn't. Oh, and of course the user would need to dial into his ISP for any logs to get sent. And not everyone had an ISP back then. Some people just used their computer to call local BBS's or play games. You could even play games over the modem by directly calling one of your friends, or you could use one of the services like this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DWANGO
they have been doing it only on the machines of users that they targeted individually, it used spying ressources they had to devote to this task, and they could only do it after other sources had flagged the user as a verybadgoy they should spy upon
with win10, everyone is spied upon, and (((they))) only need to sort through mountains of data for the badgoy flags they chose to look for
I suggest a win10 LTSC in bondage in a virtualbox running on some *nux machine with an armor-plated proxy to reach the interweb, this should keep data leak to a minimum
Tyler Diaz
Why, literally the only reason to use windows is for gaymen
Xavier Hill
nope, apple is for liberal faggots, and linux for scientists/geeks a lot of design/graphics/engineering programs are windows, and the only rational choice in a professional setting
Charles Robinson
Get a life outside computers.
Gavin Bell
install gentoo
Jacob Baker
Yes, go to the bunkers that actively shoot at 8channers. Great advice.

They dont care if Im a nigger hating nazi they only care if i dont pay taxes
(1) Don't use social media [Avoid Facebook/Myspace/Twitter/Snapchat/etc.] (no brainer) (2) Forward secrecy (keep your mouth shut about any personal info if you don't want to expose yourself) (3) Use a cheap private VPN (w/ no IP logging) and Tor browser! (4) Always disconnect your internet (physically) when you are not going to use it! Make sure bluetooth and WiFi is physically disabled. Don't keep it online all the time! If you do, you are asking to be hacked! (5) Use an old "flipper" phone. AKA a jitterbug. Cover up any camera if has one. Jitterbugs are basic cellphones for people with disability problems / senior citizens! Just a bare basic cell phone where you can take out the battery. Has no internet platform. (6) Flock to flea markets, garage sales, thrift shops to buy older electronics! Do not by 'smart' or 'green' appliances! Learn how to maintain and fix older products/utilities too! All IoT (Internet of Things) tech can be used to spy on you, avoid IoT! (7) Never put your real name or personal info into your computer, always use FAKE names / aliases. Tell your friends to just hang out with you face-to-face instead of using social media. (8) Face to face relationships are the best kind. Don't be afraid to hang with your friends now and then. I do – in fact – that's all I'll do. (no social media BS) (9) Always bleach you browser cache / cookies / web logs! 35x gutmann style! (Bleachbit, Ccleaner, etc.) (10) No OS is safe. Just exclude as much personal information you can from your Operating System. Make sure its disconnected offline when not being used! Make sure bluetooth and WiFi is also physically disabled when not in use. (11) Browser Security: Use Noscript add-on. Noscript is a must: make sure to block all global scripts, wipe the whitelist in Noscript and re-configure the whitelist that best fits your browser habits. IPFlood is also a useful add-on to obfuscate IP GET requests. You should use Random Agent Spoofer (or Blender) to spoof your browser & OS metadata while you surf the web, making it a lot harder to track your activity. Tin Foil is another great security addon. (12) Its best to have two computers, rather than just one. For example, have one just for banking / legit LEGAL purposes. Have another one (completely separated) just for private or illegal activity. Make sure you don't put any personal info in the private computer. (13) Use encryption and strong passwords! Write them down on a piece of paper or memorize them. DO NOT store passwords on a computer file. That is a big no-no! Try easy to remember long sentances for passwords, and combine all the words together. The more characters used, the harder it is for hackers to break the passwords. (14) Have separate email accounts for each kind of activity (legal or not, don't matter). (15) Make sure you physically disconnect your web cam or cover it up with black electrical tape. Most laptops these days come with web cams attached above or below the monitor. Make sure the camera cannot be used to identify you or spy on you in any way. (Yes, webcams can be hacked / remotely hijacked to spy on you!) (16) Avoid new "Smart TVs" (they spy on you too)! If you have a newer TV, make sure you cover up or unplug the camera and microphone. Or keep it offline and disconnected from the cable box when not in use. You could cancle cable and rip DVDs of your favorite movies and shows instead, using it for offline purposes only. (17) Avoid all new digitized vehicles. They can easily be hacked, used to spy on you and even be remotely hijacked by criminal entities/governments! (18) Never allow another person to use your computer. Make sure you routinely backup important files to a flashdrive or DVD and store that data offline. Also make sure you have a backup copy of the OS you use as well. If you ever have problems with your OS someday, just wipe your partitioned OS, and then re-partition the OS again yourself from scratch. Do not allow others to 'fix' your computer, they could easily steal information from your OS you might not want them knowing about. Geek Squad works with the FBI and other agencies to steal data from their customers, do not trust them to fix or repair your computer. (19) Any photos you take with modern cameras contain EXIF metadata that contain GPS coordinates among other data used to identify the owner of the photo. If you store your modern photos online, people will be able to identify you. Don't do it! I repeat: do not post modern photos online unless you want to be identified!
